During this period, Zhang Yonghao, Vice President Wang, and the Chief Financial Officer were having a tough time.
After all, anyone who suddenly loses more than twenty billion would feel terrible.
But when they finally made the decision to part ways with Chen Yan, they felt completely relieved.
For them, it felt as if a nightmare had ended.
Especially in the following days, as oil futures prices continued to rise, confirming their correct judgement with the only issue being Chen Yan, their happiness increased even more.
After all, losing money is distressing, but if your enemy loses more than you, it's somewhat comforting.
What's more, they not only lost less money than Chen Yan but they also had a backup plan and were highly likely to take over Chen Yan's shares and oust him from the game.
So, they were even happier.
This also led them to take some pleasure in Chen Yan's misfortune when talking about him later, thinking that he had really screwed up this time.
